Sorry for what is probably the wrong subject line but what I am trying to do is write into what will be an archived page and have that information or a portion of it written to a page visible in the website without the use of a additional database.

The site itself will be using powerCMS. There will be some areas that will only need archived information to be present.

Hope that made sense, can I use one of the WebAssist products to do this?.

Thanks

you wont be able to display only a portion of another page in a page on your site without some considerable hand coding.

If you wanted to show an entire page in another page on your site, you could use an iframe:
<iframe src ="pagename.html">
<p>Your browser does not support iframes.</p>
</iframe>

Thanks Jason,

I was hoping I could use something like this ASP cose in the form of PHP like below:

originating page code...

<a href="special_reports.asp?rptid=1">link text</a> More text here


Page destination code...

<form><span style="color:#CC0000;"><%=strReportName %></span><br>
<%=strReportDescription %>
</form>

Iframe is to much info. But I think I can use PowerCMS to do what I want.

Thanks
